Quiet, they are slightly off the beaten track near South Ken so maybe not as much passing trade as other places. Nice friendly family feel. Good food, my pumpkin and gorgonzola risotto was a little too sweet needed a bit more gorgonzola, but nice lunch.

Just like mama used to make it - great family feel restaurant, food is amazing, great wine choice and really handy for the Royal Albert Hall. Would not hesitate to recommend, after visiting for the first time, we booked to return the next day!!!

We found Pappa Roma by chance whilst visiting the V&A (another great place). A great menu with lots of variety. We couldn’t fault the light and tasty Fruttura di Gamberino e Zucchini, followed by a delicious Ravioloni in casa ripieni con stracchino.. & Pappardelle Fatte in casa con Salsciccia…. All dishes were absolutely delicious. When we’re next in the area we will happily come back

Lovely, authentic feeling Italian eatery with a comfortable ambiance and welcoming atmosphere. The food portions were very generous, and the quality was great - feels like home cooked, high quality comfort food. The beef in the Ragu was melt in the mouth and the pasta was fresh. The aubergine parmigiana was perfection. The pizza bottom was a little soggy but it was otherwise good and very filling. The service was absolutely great, so fast, warm and friendly. The bathroom vestibule downstairs smelt unpleasant, and the bathrooms were a bit run down but it’s an old establishment I guess. Seems like

We happened upon this amazing intimate restaurant by chance and I couldn't be happier that we found it. To enter is to be transported to Italy. We started with olives, a bread basket, and bruschetta - all simple with quality ingredients. Then moved in to their award winning pizza - and the reason it's award winning becomes apparent with your 1st bite. We finished our meal with an incredible tiramisu and cafe americano. The service was attentive, but not rushed. I could not recommend Pappa Roma more!

Had starters, main and dessert. All were great. The starter was nice and fresh, the main was sumptuous, and the dessert delicate. Service was very helpful picking out matching wines.
The decor is beautiful, however, the acoustics made it hard to carry a conversation with my party.

Service is great and fast. Food is delicious. After a few years spent in Italy, as a picky customer (in terms of Italian cuisine) I can definitely tell that it is one of the best restaurants I have visited in the UK. Despite the restaurant is located a little bit out of the Main Street it is worth to visit it and to prefer this restaurant to other . They deserve 5 stars and even more.

Amazing food and such friendly staff. Great great find in South Kensington.
Extremely good value for money given the food and the location. One exception: I ordered the Pizza di Bosco which was absolutely delicious but overpriced at nearly £20... (even if it was award winning in 2017). That being said, I finished the whole thing
Highly recommend

Small, “charming”, very good food and good, courteous service. My wife and I shared the callimari appetizer which was very tender and then shared a pizza. Very fresh ingredients. A very relaxed dining experience
